Snowflake Card

I haven't been very good about posting my projects, so this year it is one of my goals to post more things on my blog. I also am going to challenge myself more and put forth a greater effort to participate in more challenges. So this week I have made this cute snowflake card that is for two challenges - Fantabulous Cricut (Snowy Delights) and Made by Momo ("snow" or "snow theme").

To make this card I used dark purple cardstock for the base, a white mat and then printed paper by BoBunny. I punched white and light purple cardstock to add an edge to the bottom. I wrapped a snowflake ribbon around the bottom of the mats and then I added the 3" Cricut cut snowflake with foam tape. I added Stickles to the center cutouts of the snowflake along with a gem in the center.

Stickles - Crystal
Printed Paper - BoBunny Winter Joy Frosty
Snowflake - Cricut cartridge When It's Cold Outside
Punch - EK Success
Ribbon - Michaels

Thanks wood letters

These are wood letters that I covered with Imaginisce Apple Cider line of papers. They are super cute double-sided papers with embossing. I think they turned out really cute - the picture doesn't even do it justice. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Halloween blocks

I got this idea from our local scrapbook store. I modified it from the one they had to make it my own but I think it turned out pretty darn cute. They are made with 2 x 4 wood blocks and I used the BoBunny Whooligans papers for background. The phrases were cut from the Mini Monsters cartridge (with a little modification). Embelishments were from BoBunny and Doodlebug Designs.

Get well card

My mom had surgery last week so I was teaching my kids that it is nice to send get well cards to people who aren't feeling so good. While I was creating this card my little boy was creating his own. I was very impressed that he worked so hard and intent to make grandma his own card.

Word blocks

I picked up this kit at our local scrapbooking store to make these blocks that have six sayings : dream, learn, hope, love, faith, and laugh. It's nice to have one project that you can change and keep out all year. I thought they turned out really cute.

Made by Momo's Tuesday Challenge

The challenge this Tuesday was to create a project to show what love means to you or to do a love themed card or layout. I made this card using Creat a Critter cartridge and printed the sentiment using MS Word. Thanks for the challenge it was great!

Emma'sThrowback Thursday Challenge

I have been following Emma's blog for a while now and have absolutely loved all the fun projects that are submitted for her challenges. So I finally decided to attempt my first challenge and here it is.


Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge for this week was to use Zooballoo for an animal themed project. Since I don't own Zooballoo, I found this cute horse to use on the Create A Critter cartridge. The sentiment is also on the Create A Critter cartridge. I would love to hear any comments or suggestions. I had a lot of fun doing this challenge and can't wait for next Thursday to attempt my next project!
